A detailed interpretation of probability, and its link with quantum

... notions, let us have a look at a typical probabilistic system, namely a die. When or why is a die „probabilistic‟, or „random‟ (or rather the throwing events, or outcomes) ? Simply stating in non-anthropocentric terms what a die throw is, seems to immediately bring to the fore a few important notion ...

... Believers in the law of averages think that if you toss a coin six times and get TTTTTT, the next toss must be more likely to give a head. It’s true that in the long run heads will appear half the time. What is a myth is that future outcomes must make up for an imbalance like six straight tails. Coi ...

Indeterminism

Indeterminism is the concept that events (certain events, or events of certain types) are not caused, or not caused deterministically (cf. causality) by prior events. It is the opposite of determinism and related to chance. It is highly relevant to the philosophical problem of free will, particularly in the form of metaphysical libertarianism.In science, most specifically quantum theory in physics, indeterminism is the belief that no event is certain and the entire outcome of anything is a probability. The Heisenberg uncertainty relations and the “Born rule”, proposed by Max Born, are often starting points in support of the indeterministic nature of the universe. Indeterminism is also asserted by Sir Arthur Eddington, and Murray Gell-Mann. Indeterminism has been promoted by the French biologist Jacques Monod's essay ""Chance and Necessity"". The physicist-chemist Ilya Prigogine argued for indeterminism in complex systems.
